Violence prevention - actions aimed at eradicating the causes of violence against women and girls before violence occurs. They are aimed at transforming the prevailing stereotypes about the position and role of women and men in private and public life, which justify discrimination and violence against women.

Prevention includes a variety of educational and outreach programs targeted at different age and social groups, including children and adolescents. Animated videos, digital reports and interactive sites to discuss gender equality issues are some examples of that.

Already existing mobile applications offer users many options for alerting family and friends in case of danger. They use online forms to submit reports, locate attack sites and upload photographic evidence where possible and appropriate. Applications allow you to use the GPS function to aggregate and map the locations of violence in real time; many of them use free and open source visualization and information gathering platforms.

Your task is to propose a digital product that will help in preventing violence. The technical component is not a mandatory requirement, but will be considered as an asset.

Violence against women and girls occurs in all regions and is not properly reported. Certain groups of women and girls may experience multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination, making them even more vulnerable to violence.

Data is a critical tool for understanding the scope of the problem and how different events affect levels of violence. They can help identify risk factors, the impact on the availability of services for women and girls survivors of violence, the impact on access to such services and seeking help from formal and informal sources, and what short- and medium-term needs are emerging. These data are essential to develop evidence-based policies and programs that respond to the needs of women and girls, reduce risks and mitigate adverse impacts. In addition, these data can provide important insight and information for developing targeted strategies and interventions that can be extremely effective in preventing violence against women and girls.

The main problems in collecting data on violence can be the reluctance or fear of the victim to report the act of violence, the lack of a single source of information and the lack of official statistics. Recently, the complications associated with the pandemic and the inability to use some traditional methods of data collection were added to the list of challenges.

Your task is to propose a technology that will help in effectively collecting data on violence, as well as to strategize and implement its functionality. For example, a mobile application, web service, chat bot, etc. The technical component is not a mandatory requirement, but will be considered as an asset.

Often, when people are subjected to violence, they do not know what to do or where to turn. Victims of violence often seek or are tempted to seek help in the middle of the night or on weekends.
When a woman experiences violence, the first thing she needs is a strong system of support - very often victims turn to their friends or relatives who can take care of them. There are also crisis centers that provide assistance to women and girls who are in a crisis situation or subjected to psychophysical violence.

In a difficult situation, it is important to provide the victim with asylum, ensure the most complete rehabilitation and adaptation in society and the family, mobilize resources to overcome difficult life situations, help preserve the families of minors and young mothers, and also prevent violence against women and children.

The victim of violence may need to be advised on how to contact the police in case of violence, threats and harassment, how to document the traces of beatings, as well as how to communicate with the police and doctors in the emergency room in general. Information on how to write statements to the police, the prosecutor's office and the investigative committee may come in handy.

Your task is to come up and develop a resource for helping victims of violence, which will provide proper support in a crisis situation. The set of functions can include all possible ways of supporting victims - from a medical examination to the search for psychological help.
